A template we use was updated and we want a page recently created with that template to reflect those changes, can this be done and how? thx!

@Briana Gutierrez Welcome to the Community. 

I am moving this question to the Confluence discussion space. This space is reserved for articles, discussions and questions about the Atlassian add on application Questions for Confluence. 

Before I do that, the answer to this question is that you cannot apply changes to a template retroactively to a page created from the template. Once you publish the page it is no longer connected to the template file. The only way to take the existing content and have it updated to the new template format would be to create a new page from the updated template and then copy and paste the content from the original page into the new page. 

Best of luck!
